The benefits of using harvest bulk bins
Continuous airflow
Each
DuraGreen harvest bin
features industry-leading venting. Vents in a bin allow airflow through the container to ensure fruits and vegetables are appropriately cooled. Venting also facilitates better storage in controlled atmosphere (CA) rooms for apples and other sensitive produce.
Temperature controlled
Designed with temperature control in mind, you will not need to worry about your crop overheating in the hot sun during the harvesting process. The light color of the bins reflects sunlight and, in turn, will absorb less heat, which keeps your product from getting too hot. Additionally, the vents in the bin allow airflow through the container keeping your fruits and vegetables from spoiling.
From the field to the facility
While harvesting, it is beneficial to be able to stack your full containers on top of one another to save space or on a vehicle that will be transporting your harvest to the processing facility. The base of every harvest bin has feet designed to enable safe and secure stacking without damaging any product. The containers will be able to stack with or without a lid.
